Balance the given equation:

CO2+H2O---->C6H12O6+O2+H2O

ANS .(1) 6CO2+7H2O----->C6H12O6+6O2+H2O is incorrect

Where as (2) 6CO2+12H2O------>C6H12O6+6O2+6H2O is correct.

Why first answer is incorrect and second answer is correct

Open in AppSolution

naturally this is general equation in photosynthesis biologically in chemistry view both are balanced but biologically second correct A simple general equation for photosynthesis follows: 6 6CO2 + 12 H2O + photons → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O (carbon dioxide + water + light energy). We know well that this is the way our environment is recycled through plants. Due to technology, so much of CO2 is available and plants are not enough. A thought process must have gone to commercially make this reaction feasible which may or may not use sunlight and green plants as the only input. One may avoid either or both and use alternates..

Q. The process of photosynthesis says 6C02 + 12H2O ---- C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O (as given in the book) it is a balanced equation.. cant we rewrite it such that 6C02 + 7H2O ---- C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 + H2O consider the above equation. It is also balanced. Can we write photosynthesis in that way ? View More
